Busy but Happy

Dog

I've been meaning to write another post for days now, and I never seem to find the time. I added my Twitter feed to this, to somewhat make up for my lack of legitimate activity. Life is always hectic during the first two weeks of the month, as we scramble to put together the next issue of Jagazine. This month has the added pressure of being our year-anniversary issue, which we need to have no later than February 4th -- the day of our anniversary show/party/event. Any free time we have goes into planning for that, as well as trying to get the remodeled website up and running. It's been going pretty well, but we need to pick up the pace if we want it all ready by next month.

Aside from Jagazine, I've been shuffling through my day job. Some days are hectic, but most are pretty slow. I've been doing design work for the Husky rescue I volunteer for. This weekend also holds the possibility of taking a road trip to VA to pick up a wolfdog for Howling Woods Farm. That could make for an interesting mini-adventure.

Oh, how could I forget? I've got relatively big, dork news. I purchased a Nikon D90 body! I was going to hold off until Spring, after getting tax money back, but I just couldn't wait. I received a $500 holiday bonus from work, which made buying the D90 less painful. I managed to snag one for $760, and after selling my D60 body for about $300, I made out like a bandit. I didn't have to dip into my savings at all! Total success.

Anyway, I'll probably have an entry comparing the D60 and the D90 once I get more familiar with it. We did a mini photo shoot for Jagazine last week, which was my D90's first big test. The photos came out spectacular. The quality is so much better than what I could get on my D60. It's probably more noticeable for me, because I scrutinize my photos at like, 600% in PSD. But overall, I'm very happy with my purchase.

More blogging to come soon, I promise.
